Ever since I was a teenager when I realized I was blessed with less than perfect *cough* eyebrows I've taken the time to shape, fill, and gel my eyebrows as part of my beauty regiment each day. The problem is, every eyebrow pencil is different, how do you know which color to get, and brow gel isn't always the easiest to find. So, when I was given the opportunity to try out Billion Dollar Brows available exclusively at Kohl'shere, I jumped that the chance.
The products were really easy to use and I love the idea of a brow highlighter too. I love that the pencil is a twist up and doesn't require sharpening either. I also love the brush and found it worked really well for blending. I'm excited to add these products to my routine and glad I can get them all at once and in one place too.
After getting ready and using Billion Dollar BrowsKohl's I wore this combo to church recently and I wore it for parent teacher conferences yesterday too. I got this dress on the clearance rack at Target a few years ago and still absolutely love it, it was an online return and I scored it for $8. I really like it with my new necklace from chloe + isabel too.
Today I thought I'd share a post of some things I'm loving lately. : )
1. We had family pictures taken at my parents' house, this is the first time we've done something other than JCP since Grant was born. It was really fun and I love how they turned out.
2. I got a new planner! I've had a Coach one for the last decade or so and it was on it's last leg. I love this new one!
3. I'm not ready to put my summer stuff away and can't get enough of these shoes!
4. I'm soaking up all the time I can outside. We recently went apple picking at my parents' house. Yum!
5. This. Face.
6. My new wallet from thredUp! It's Ralph Lauren and retails now for over $125 but it was only $30 on thredUp and I had credits to spend. If you haven't tried thredUp yet join here for $10 off your first purchase.
One of the pieces that has been on my wish list is a jacket like this one, so I was ecstatic when I got the chance to partner with Gordmans this fall. I was able to visit my local store and check out all their new fall pieces. Gordmans has brands like Jessica Simpson, Kensie, BB Dakota and Lush- all that feature the latest fall trends, and all at affordable prices.
I decided on this jacket, although the choice was tough, because they also had a great version in wine, a tan one, and a gray one. The outfit I'm wearing today is great for casual Friday, minus the jacket, than I can add the jacket for a fun night out with friends. I'm actually getting to go on a Girls' Weekend to Kansas City this next weekend. It's the first time I've ever been away from Grant for more than 24 hours and I'm so excited! We're going to keep it pretty low key, but we do plan to check out the Power and Lights District one night, so this jacket will be perfect!
Jacket: Gordmans c/o available in stores for $39.99
Today I decided to wear my much-loved navy dress and my gingham shirt from last year with this cardigan I've had forever. I really love how it came together and it's a transitional look for fall I can hop on board for.
I wore this outfit to church last Sunday because the weather is still pretty nice, by nice I mean in the 70 degree range. I did pull out jeans on Saturday, as we were outside in the morning and it was cooler, but I haven't pulled the trigger and switched my summer clothes out for my winter and fall. You know we'll all be sick of those layers by January???? I do have an outfit planned for tomorrow that I will count as a transitional outfit, but I'm wearing peek toe heels, what can I say, I'm a rebel ;)
I was recently reading up on some of the trends for this upcoming fall season and today I thought I'd highlight some that I think I'll try. They include wearing sneakers (other than with sweats to the store), neon (I love this for summer, but hadn't considered fall), Fair Isle (love this!), and bold prints. Now none of these are a huge stretch to the imagination, but they're easily attainable and adaptable to an existing wardrobe. Some other trends for fall like head to toe knit and dresses over pants (say what???) are trends I think I'll be passing on. What about you, what trends are you loving for fall?

It's starting to cool down and that means breaking out my jeans for the first time in months. This summer I came across Joe's Jeans, similar to these at Goodwill for $3. So, at the age of 35 I got my first pair of fancy jeans. You guys. I love them. Today I decided to pair them with my beloved utility vest and J.Crew Factory shirt. The finishing touches on this outfit are my favorite new leopard flats and these Kendra Scott inspired earrings. I wore this for a day at my parents' house this last weekend. My sister and her husband came back to visit, so we hung out, picked apples, and Grant entertained the bunch with his antics.
